Steven Stamkos – With a point in every single game this season, Steven Stamkos is the definition of a cash game option for DFS hockey and is proving to be back to 100% health. The former first overall draft pick has scored four goals and dished out a ridiculous 17 assists in just 11 games this season and teams up with Nikita Kucherov to form, arguably, the most dangerous duo in the entire NHL. As if the point production wasn’t enough on its own, Stamkos has also fired 37 pucks on net in those 11 games and that shot volume helps push his floor even higher. He’s not cheap, but he’s not quite as expensive as he likely should be either.
